FME Flow

FME Server is creating dynamic sudo engines with prefix 'context-id':Background: We have 3 engines on our FME Server. Workbench (WB) 1, is a continuous job run all the time, internally WB1 triggers WB1a & WB1b.WB2 is a web-service based job, gets triggered when a web-service call is initiated. All the WBs are in same repository. 2 engines are been dedicated to this repository. Step1: WB1 is triggered on engine 1, now as the engine 1 is occupied, all the other jobs should be triggered on engine 2.Step2: Lets say Engine 2 is occupied by WB2.Step3: In this scenario, when WB1 initiates WB1a or WB1b, FME server creates a dynamic sudo engine with prefix 'context-id' for engine 1 or engine 2 and queues the job to one of these engines.As the engine1 is occupied by a continuous job (WB1), the jobs waiting on the queue for engine 1, never get executed.Is there a way in FME server configuration to avoid creating

Why do i have to specify the source en result data in the Jobsubmitter while that`s already in the workspace

Hi,I´m currently working on a custom webpage for data delivery.  I´ve used some code from the following example in FME Playground: https://playground.fmeserver.com/javascript/data-delivery/open-layers-integration/  I´m wondering how it´s possible to change the token in the FMEServer.init below, to a token that is generated thru the example here: https://playground.fmeserver.com/javascript/authorization/request-a-token/ Pre-generated setup for the token:FMEServer.init({ server : "https://demos-safe-software.fmecloud.com", token : "568c604bc1f235bbe137c514e7c61a8436043070&

Is it possible - if my translation fail, user will get an email with fail message, if translation is successful, in that case user will get an email also with successful translation message.

Hi,I have 5 fixed licenses of FME Desktop Smallworld Edition.Is it possible to install FME on to 5 virtual instances, that any user within my team can remote in to and use? I understand this would be limited to one user per instance. Therefore meaning the license is on the node, not on a named user?In an ideal world, we would have floating licenses, but this is not possible. Thanks,Steve

Hi I would like to disable the schedule in FME Server in the event of a job failure.I am looking at https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_REST/apidoc/v3/index.html#!/schedules/update_put_3which works but it seems that I have to update all the parameters in the schedule for this to work, rather than just the parameter "enabled".I would like to set the request body as{ "enabled": false}Has anyone manage to get this working by just setting enabled to false ?

Our company has FME Server installed for internal use only, so I have it set up to poll an Office365 e-mail inbox for new e-mails. The imap_publisher_content list only has one index of text/html, and the text in the body of the e-mail comes in with encoding issues. Example: Met with inspector and surveyed the two 2â€? electric conduit lines. I’ll upload the photos to SharePoint. I have attached the incoming JSON. I am having issues in trying to get the text encoded correctly and not sure how to proceed. This is also related to a recent post I made that I am still unable to fix or find out how to receive the imap_publisher_content list in plain/text through our online company Office365 exchange account.https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/82234/fme-server-polling-imap.html

Dear forum, I hope everyone is doing great. I am getting trouble in my FME server datadownload process from yesterday midnight at (00:00:00). Yesterday all the job was processed timely and users have downloaded data but from the mid night all the jobs is Queued or "Running" in status. I have checked that our license is till may 2019 , so this is not the case of licensing error. I have collected one information from one of our job that : statusMessageUndefined macro `FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR' dereferenced in file `xxxx\\dbexport\\dbexport.fmw'  If this might be the case then why it was running before perfectly? We did not change any configuration. ThanksWith kind regards Muqit Zoarder

I have a network of railway switches and I need to assign the value of a switch line being left or right automatically.What do I have: A feature class containing a track that looks like thisI need to generate something that looks like the following.The red arrow is always the direction you look at the intersection and that helps you determine if the lines branching out are left or right.

Have ArcGIS Pro 2.2.4 installed on an AWS box with the "Data Interoperability" license but on the Analysis ribbon, the Workbench icon is grayed out and says "This command is currently disabled. Authorize and enable the Data Interoperability Extension to access this functionality." Been on the phone with Esri and they want me to switch from a Named User to a concurrent license but that is not an option right now for me. They are thinking the remote desktop is blocking the license somehow and to try using Process Monitor to find the issue...not much fun! Anyone else have this issue? I know this is more an Esri issue but not making much progress on that end. Side note - I have ArcGIS Pro installed locally as well and do NOT have this issue.

Ive seen great work is being done to bring FME Server to Docker but im keen to know more about deploying FME server on a kubernetes cluster. I found a github repo for FME server helm charts but there doesnt seem to be much supporting documentation or press releases detailing the progress of this work by Safe. Are these Helm charts in a usable state?

Hi All,I have a workspace which works fine in desktop, and even works fine in our Pre-Production FME Server environment, but when I try to run on our Production FME Server instance I get the error message above. Any ideas? Full log below (have removed elements that showed senitive things like databases and passwords!): FME 2017.1.1.1 (20171014 - Build 17652 - WIN64)  FME_HOME is 'C:\Program Files\FME_Server_2017.1.1.1\Server\fme\'  FME Engine (node locked-crc)  Serial Number: SAFE  Machine host name is: -- START - ProcessID: 8424, peak process memory usage: 34820 kB, current process memory usage: 34820 kB   FME Configuration: Reader Keyword is `ORACLE_SPATIAL_1'  FME Configuration: Writer Keyword is `MULTI_WRITER'  FME Configuration: Writer Group Definition Keyword is `MULTI_WRITER_DEF'  FME Configuration: Reader type is `ORACLE_SPATIAL'  FME

Hi,On the FME Server trial download page, if I choose the win-64 option, my browser starts downloading FME Server 2017.1.2.1-b17725. But reading the Licensing Walk-Through, I get the impression that I can request a trial license for any version of FME Server starting from main version 2016 and later versions.Question; Will I be able to download and install FME Server 2018.1 from the customer download page, and request a 60-day trial license for my FME Server 2018.1 installation by following the steps in the Licensing Walk-Through? Or are 60-day trials only available for FME Server 2017.1.2.1-b17725 specifically? 

How to check validity end date of FME license?

The FME Knowledge Center will be undergoing an upgrade on Tuesday, Oct 30 at 4:00 PM Pacific Time. This will involve a site outage of about 30-60 minutes. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

We upgraded to FME Server 2018 last night and found that one of my process that outputs multiple files now makes a folder for each output versus on 2017 everything was in one folder called dataset. I did not change anything on process just upgraded to 2018.Thanks,Chad

I am using FME Server 2018 and FME Desktop2018. My goal is to get informed and run a workspace, if a change was made in a specific directory. The FME Server has no internet connection, so I need another solution than the email-notification. My plan ist to run a directory watch by the FME Server and trigger a workspace to start running on my FME Desktop, which opens a command line window with a message inside.The other workspace contains a geocoder transformer, so an internet connection is needed. As I mentioned the server has no connection to the internet, so it definitely has to be executed on the FME Desktop.Is it possible to run a workspace with FME Desktop, initiated by the FME Server? I thought I could add a network-based resource to get access to the .fmw, but in the subscription options I am only able to add workspaces stored in the repositories.Any ideas?

Hi,We have finally succeeded to configure Single Sign On properly on our FME Server. I assumed that opening the URL would lead me directly to my Home-screen (https://<my-fme-hostname>/fmeserver/#/home, but this was not the case, unfortunately.When opening the FME-Server URL, I get a proper Login Screen, where I explicitly need to press the button "Use Windows Credentials". Doing so, logs me in succesfully, so my assumption is that we have configured Single Sign On / HTTPS well...Now, my question: Is it possible to bypass this login screen and automatically log a user in when SSO is working fine? I have read the post from @jvt2, it looks like he is asking the same question, but the answer of @erik_jan doesn't give me the right answer, or Did I miss something?Regards,Frank van Doorne

When using a webpage to upload files to FME server, the files are put in a folder with the username of the fme token instead of the session ID retrieved from FMEServer.getSession()The directories based on session are being created, but the files are stored in the user directory (belonging to the token) instead. The file upload does succeed, the following translation fails because it tries to find the files in the session directory. Help!

I'm getting a notification that my license is about to expire and wondering why.

Can we access the published parameters in mail body when success topic raised for the topic is success or failure?

I set up a directory watch in FME server to watch changed shape files in a directory. Since each shape file has 7 components, updating one shape file will trigger 7 notifications, causing the subscribing workspace to run 7 times. I would hope the directory watch publication has an option to watch only ".shp" files so that each shape file change only triggers one notification. Any work around about this?

Backstory:For some reason the traditional ESRI solutions for doing this have failed to move the Attachments as well, so I wanted to see if I could use FME to do this.I have a SDE feature class with 43,000+ records and 84,000+ attachments. I have successfully used FME to write new features to an SDE Feature Class and add attachments at the time of writing. This however would be moving existing features and their attachments to a new SDE Feature Class in a different database. The thought would be to read (with the "Ignore Relationship Info" parameter disabled) the existing features, the attachment relationship table, and the attachments and then use the current origin and destination relationship ids as the values used as the temporary relationship ids when writing them as new features and attachments into the new location.Question:Has anyone attempted something similar? Second, the attachments are not being read. The feature and the attachme
